Radeon Gallium3D Now Does MSAA On R600

Phoronix: Radeon Gallium3D Now Does MSAA On R600

Thanks to the great work of Marek Ol??k, the prolific independent contributor to Mesa/Gallium3D that is still at university, AMD Radeon HD 2000/3000 "R600" hardware now has MSAA (anti-aliasing) support from the open-source Linux graphics driver...

Comment

Any chance this MSAA work can be applied to r300g? It's one of the last
features that the AMD Catalyst drivers from 2007 have that the r300g drivers don't.

I'm sure a lot of people on laptops are going to be very thankful for this work. Myself included if it makes it to r300g.

I agree, AMD should hire this guy... Or at the very least, pay for his tuition.

AMD picked up that developer from Stanford that was working on the GPGPU acceleration for [email protected], so I don't see why they wouldn't be trying to hire Marek as I'm sure Marek has made bigger contributions to AMD than that already.
